MEDIA ADVISORY, April 21 /Christian Newswire/ -- Author Paul Nowak has posted his book, The Way of the Christian Samurai: Reflections for Servant-Warriors of Christ (ISBN 0977223469) for free on his website, Eternal-Revolution.com.
The book can be downloaded for free or for a free will donation here.
"After much prayer, I decided that this work should be made as widely available as possible," said Nowak. "Economic issues should not stand in the way of Christians encouraging one another."
ChristianBookReview.net rated The Way of the Christian Samurai as an "Essential" book, calling it "an important book that can be read with profit by those in the Church.”
The samurai, whose very title means "one who serves," were skillful warriors of feudal Japan who devoted themselves fully to the service of their masters, willing even to sacrifice their lives in service to their lord. Christians are also called by their Lord, Jesus, to take up their cross and follow Him, and to seek to lose their life for His sake (Matthew 16:24-25).
While fantastic legends and stories of the samurai are plentiful, The Way of the Christian Samurai draws from primary sources -- notes, essays, and books written by real samurai from Japan's feudal era. Their advice on everything from overcoming fear, giving counsel to others, serving one's Lord, and self-sacrifice are remarkably applicable to the life of the modern Christian.
Author Paul Nowak ties the advice of these servant-warriors of old, pointing out how the selections from samurai texts relate to Christian teachings found in the Scriptures.
The book is a matchless resource for Christians intrigued by the mythos of the samurai or Japanese culture, or for pastors and other spiritual leaders who are looking for anecdotes that illustrate Biblical ideals. Christian parents whose children enjoy Anime or Manga will find it a useful tool in understanding their children's interests and in ministering to them.
Eternal Revolution prepares and arms Christians to keep, defend and spread the faith in the modern world which is always hostile to genuine Christianity, using reason-based arguments to combat the forces that seek to destroy our society and humanity.
